West Ham United have reportedly made an enquiry for Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke, with Gianluca Scamacca set to join Atalanta in a £26 million deal.
According to the Mirror, West Ham are eyeing up a move for Dominic Solanke as a potential replacement for Gianluca Scamacca in the summer transfer window.
Hammers boss David Moyes will be desperate to sign a new striker before the transfer window slams shut.
Scamacca is set to join Atalanta in a €30 million (£26 million) deal. And it seems as though Moyes has a potential replacement lined up…
West Ham now want to sign 25-year-old Premier League striker as replacement for Scamacca
The Mirror reckon that the Hammers are lining up a move to sign Solanke as a replacement for the Italian, and have made an enquiry for the Bournemouth forward.
I have to say, I have never really rated the 25-year-old, and would be incredibly underwhelmed if Moyes brought him to the London Stadium this summer.
He has scored just nine goals in 75 Premier League games for the Cherries (Transfermarkt) – a truly woeful return for a centre-forward.
Solanke is a decent target man and holds the ball up fairly well but he isn’t anywhere near Premier League quality as far as I’m concerned.
There are so many better options out there for West Ham this summer, and in all honesty, West Ham would have been far better off just keeping Gianluca Scamacca.
